Abstract (en)

A combination including a gas turbine engine (10) extending along an axis (12) is disclosed herein. The gas turbine engine (10) includes an annular combustor having a combustor liner (80,32). The combination also includes a plurality of projections (66) extending from the combustor liner and spaced from one another circumferentially about the axis. The combination also includes a free-standing ring (68) disposed about the combustor liner and positioned adjacent to the plurality of projections (66) along the axis (12). The plurality of projections (66) engages the free-standing ring (68) and circumferentially supports the combustor liner (80,32) while allowing relative radial displacement between the combustor liner and the free-standing ring. The combination also includes a plurality of pins (70) each being integrally-formed with one of the plurality of projections (66). Each of the plurality of pins (70) extends along the axis and is received in one of a plurality of slots formed in the free-standing ring.
